The Wizard’s Fairy Tale

Gretel looked down at her shoes and said nothing.

The old woman was still angry, and suddenly shouted, "Gretel, Gretel..."

"Teacher, I'm here!" Gretel replied blankly.

The old woman couldn't see clearly.

She just said, "Take me to see your lovely brother Hansel! After eating so much, he should have gained a lot of weight during this time. It's almost ready to eat."

"Now that the frog is gone, let's eat it. You'll like the taste, Gretel."

"Ah, let me think about it, what kind of animal should I turn him into? A lamb? A suckling pig, or a calf? It's really hard to decide..."

The old woman said lightly about cannibalism, but Gretel's expression became more and more angry, and there was a look of worry in his eyes.

She interrupted the old woman's imagination and said, "Teacher, during the days when Hansel was locked up, he has been refusing to eat. Now not only is he not fat, but he has also lost a lot of weight. He is dying and may die at any time."

"Dead people are not new." The old woman said to herself, and then she stared at Gretel with scarlet eyes, "Are you lying to me? Is it because he is your brother? Gretel , I told you many times, we are different from those ordinary people..."

"It's true! If you don't believe me, you can go and have a look!" Gretel had a very impatient expression on his face, but his tone was very respectful, with a little grievance.

Sure enough, every woman is a self-taught acting school.

The old woman thought for a while, then said, "Okay, I just want to go and have a look."

After speaking, let Gretel lead the way, and the two came to the backyard.

There was a small stable in the backyard, fenced in with iron bars, and inside it was a lanky dark figure.

The shadow is Gretel's captured brother Hansel.

The old woman walked tremblingly to the stable and ordered in a cold and shrill voice, she had no patience with Hansel and Gretel, "Hansel, stretch out your fingers, let me touch you to gain weight No?"

A gnarled finger carved from elongated bone protruded.

In such a dark night, the old woman's eyesight was even worse, and the scarlet eyeballs could only see blurred shadows.

She touched it with her cold hand like a poisonous snake, and she only felt that Hansel was as thin as skin to bone.

The old woman immediately took away her palm in disappointment, "You are so thin, how can you eat?"

She looked at Gretel and asked, "Gretel, did you eat all the candy and food you gave him every day?"

"Didn't I tell you? You just need to eat the crab powder I gave you? Other things, you can eat whatever you want. That crab powder is not an ordinary thing, it has a great effect on the growth of your magic power benefits." The old woman said softly.

Gretel had no choice but to say yes again and again.

Although the old woman seems to treat her very well now, she really treats her as a successor, but Gretel will never forget that when she first came over with Hansel, the old woman looked at her like food .

If her magic talent was not discovered by the old woman later, perhaps the two of them could only meet in the old woman's belly now.

Gretel knew very well that the reason why she was able to get this treatment was nothing more than the old woman wanted to rely on her to rebuild the candy house, thinking that the candy house was in the hands of Gretel, and there was hope for a comeback.

Gretel once heard the old woman say that the Candy Cottage was very prosperous in the past, but unfortunately, several witches met to compete for the treasures of the Candy Cottage, especially a wishful cloak that can move freely, and a tragic war broke out.

As a result of the war, a witch escaped with Ruyi's cloak, and she got two other treasures - a magic wand and a flute, but the price was that her eyes were irreversibly damaged, and she was permanently in half blind state.

As for the other witches in Candy Hut, they all died in that war.

There are no winners in wars.

Now, only the old woman guarded the empty candy hut, and the Ruyi cloak fell into William's hands.

Things are always so impermanent!

"Teacher, I have been eating the crab powder you gave me. As for Hansel's food, I have never touched it." Gretel looked at the old woman with hatred in her eyes, but her tone was very calm.

"Oh, in this case, let's feed it for a while longer." The old woman said with a final word.

Hearing the words, the shadow in the small stable heaved a sigh of relief. His figure was in a place where light and shadow intersected, blurred, and only a pair of sky blue eyes were exposed, looking at Gretel.

Gretel also nodded heavily at him, cheering him up with her eyes, and the two communicated silently with each other.

At this time, the old woman walked towards the front yard without looking back.

Gretel had no choice but to give Hansel an encouraging look, and then followed the old woman back.

In the candy house, Gretel and the old woman were relatively silent, and the atmosphere was once very awkward.

Greta thought for a moment, then asked, "Mentor, that frog..."

"Don't ask, that's not something you should pay attention to! Greta, you should accumulate magic power well. As long as your magic power is strong, there will be nothing in the world to bother you."

"Yes, mentor." Gretel said, but she took this matter deeper in her heart.

"Go, have a good rest! There are more important things waiting for you tomorrow!" said the old woman.

"Okay, mentor."

If you don't know the cause and effect, seeing this scene, you really think it's a kind father and a filial son!

"It's been a week, my lord, but we haven't found the princess you mentioned, the princess who likes to throw golden balls."

"Aren't you kidding us, my lord?"

"Although the Principality of Salz is only a small country, the Hasma family is not a big family with a permanent history or a famous name on the mainland. The only quality that can be praised is that it will not stop until death!"

The loyal guard Henry walked up and down the room and said to William.

"My lord, is there something wrong with your information! How can people turn into frogs? Why don't you just kill our prince if you have this spare time?"

Henry said while talking about the doubts in the case.

"You may have misunderstood. The Hasma family, which started out as a business, is not as famous as my name in the mainland, and even surpasses me!" William closed his eyes without opening them.

"And my information is absolutely accurate!"

"Your task is not to complain to me here, but to continue to investigate!"
